Diamond War (AUS) Horse
About
Diamond War is a 6yo bay gelding from Australia trained by Bill Cerchi, based at Colac. He is by The Brothers War out of Sundays Girl. The horse has collected five wins so far. On 10 June 2025 at Seymour, Diamond War secured his most important victory, taking the $27,000 Benchmark 64 Handicap. He has consistently been a profitable runner for bettors; anyone who backed him throughout his career would have realized a 105% return on investment.
